Hello. Please could anyone advise the identity of this Pleione, a stock grown under the label Pleione Piton. Thank you.

Hi Rob

This does look very much like a Piton to me.
I wonder what shape and colour the bulbs are ,as Piton always seems to have a very squat and pale green bulb . Very few others apart from the pale/white Formosanas have this combination.
